Lerian SILOC is built around one operational reality of SILOC: it is a deferred-net, business-day settlement system. The service maintains the gateway connection and relays the card-domain family across those windows; it computes no cycle and holds no position.

Settlement windows


SILOC settles on a deferred multilateral net basis, on business days. Nuclea runs distinct daily settlement cycles for the boleto and the card products. These cycle windows are Nuclea’s — Lerian SILOC does not compute them, open them, or close them. The service relays the cycle-period messages it receives verbatim; it acts on none of the cycle logic itself.

Regulated certificates


The gateway’s certificates are registered as a public certificate plus an external custody reference — the service holds no private key. A certificate is parsed for its subject, serial, and validity window when registered, and revoked over the API when it is retired. A credential-disabled state halts the gateway, so a disabled or revoked certificate fail-closes the connection rather than leaving it running on invalid credentials.

Contingency and recovery


The gateway and the relay are built to hold under failure without losing or duplicating a frame:
  • The gateway circuit breaker trips on repeated failure, and automatic reconnect with a capped backoff brings the connection back.
  • An unhandled message — any code outside the card family — becomes a fail-closed operator exception: never dropped, never mis-routed, held for review.
  • A relay failure on a sustained downstream outage parks the frame durably and raises a relay-down alert; an operator lists the parked failures and replays them once Lerian SLC recovers.
  • At-least-once redelivery combined with NUOp deduplication guarantees no loss and no duplicate across the whole path.

Reconciliation


Reconciliation runs at several grains so the connection’s state never drifts:
  • Per-operation dedup ledger. Every inbound operation is keyed by its NUOp, so a redelivered frame is recognized and not relayed twice.
  • Relayed-message audit feed. The list of relayed card-domain messages is the audit record of what reached Lerian SLC.
  • Per-participant status and status history. Each participant carries its operational status, and every status change is kept as a status-event history entry.
